I don’t see how I was unclear about anything. But since it went over your head, I’ll repeat myself. I wouldn’t take advice from anyone who had ZERO personal, hands-on experience in that area. The fact that you are speaking about your own experience means that you value that and it must in some way have some value to you. Or do you believe all information on the internet is valid and equal and always applicable to every situation?
Disaster response means different things to different people. There are a multitude of approaches to being prepared. What works for someone living in the coutry would never work for someone living in a city. A plan that works for someone in their 20s would not work for someone in their 70s. And so it goes. There is just a lot of nonsense out there from well-meaning people who have no experience and no business telling others how to prepare for a disaster. I wouldn’t want to learn to fly a plane from someone who has never flown themselves. Would you?
How could you have been clear on anything, you haven’t really said anything.
You won’t tell us what disaster you experienced or what advice you took or why it was wrong.
Without some information about what you are talking about, we don’t have any clues about your vague complaint about something, you need to flesh it out some.
What disaster, what advice, whose advice was so bad?
